Oliver Pocher Explains Sending 14-Year-Old Twins to Marbella Golf Boarding School

Pocher frames the boarding placement as a warned last resort.

Overview

  • He told the podcast Tommy Unlocks that he warned his sons the move would be their only chance if school did not improve.
  • Reports say the parents made the decision in early 2025 after a move from Miami to Cologne left the boys struggling in the German school system.
  • Pocher said the twins first called the boarding setup “beschissen,” but he now sees them settled and more independent.
  • The program pairs regular classes with sports such as golf and basketball trips, and the boys can fly home for birthdays and a long summer break.
  • Their sister stayed at an international school in Cologne, and Pocher’s account positions the Spanish internat as a developmental step after public criticism.
